Happy to help, I have the System_Patches package installed so providing a patch is probably the easiest way to test the fix.
@Grimson, its just as easy to download the two patched files below. Let me know how it goes.

Looks good, I couldn't reproduce the issue anymore. Thanks.

Great. Thanks for testing. There are a bunch of changes in the next pull request:

I did not notice for a while, but it looks like ever since I upgraded to this version the DNSBL has been crashing and restarting every minute, along with the service watchdog.
I've also got the out of sync error, but I've force reloaded a bunch of times and the log just says DNSBL is out of sync. Not sure what to look for in it.
-
There is no need to place DNSBL under the System Watchdog.
You need to post the log of a Force Reload All if you want to get help.
One thing that can generate Out of Sync warnings is if you have Header/Label that are not unique.
-
@ronpfs ah, well then that should fix that part.
I've attached the log to this post.

@ronpfs Awesome, thanks. I'll fix it. I'm not sure I understand how the number searched worked though. I'm not sure how to explain what I don't get about it.
26309 /var/db/pfblockerng/dnsbl/Malware_Domains.txtIn that list, is that number like the start of where that list adds to the master list or something? If that makes sense?
-
@lordbob75 said in pfBlockerNG-devel feedback:
that number
That's the number of Domain Names computed after removing Whitelist, TOP1M, Duplicates from other lists, etc.
-
@ronpfs Ok, that's what I figured but wanted to confirm. I appreciate the help!
Edit: removing the duplicate entry did indeed fix it, awesome.

I have tried it and loved it and I can't wait for it to come out :)

I just took the plunge and moved to -devel....... It's fantastic. Having all the preset feeds and their organization into groups makes everything so much easier.
One question though.... I'm confused where to put individual IP addresses and domains that I want to whitelist from ALL the IPV4 feeds.
For DNSBL, I put domains in the DNSBL Whitelist box and that seems to work.
For IPV4 on the previous version I had two custom Permit lists, which have got carrried over to the -devel version:
For domains that I want converted to IPs and then whitelisted, I put "Whois" in the source box and the domains in IPv4 Custom_List and this seems to work:
But for IPs that I want whitelisted I put the IPs in IPv4 Custom_List but I don't know what to put for Source and when I leave it blank I get this error:
Am I doing this all wrong or where should I be putting these?

You have to change the Format to Whois, then you type a Domain Name in the Source Field.

Ah OK. So if I put State to Off but sill have a list of IPs in the IPv4 Custom_List text entry box they will still get added?

If I do that I'd have to create a new "Format, State, Source, Header/Label" for each individual domain. Can I not have a list of domains in the IPv4 Custom_List box and check the "Enable Domain/AS" box", perhaps setting the State to OFF as suggested for the above?
Thanks....

Yes.

Yes you can do that as well.
You should also inspect the content of the tables in the Logs tab.

One final (I hope) question. Is there a way to keep one single domain whitelist that gets used for both:
a) Conversion to IPs for IPV4 whitelisting
b) Use in DNSBL whitelisting
I get the impression the IPV4 and DNSBL functions operate very separately..... and that you would have to keep domain whitelist in the two places to be sure. -
@occamsrazor
IPV4 operates in the IP space. It can take domain names and convert them to IPs before building the tables.DNSBL operates in the DNS space, that is only with domain names.
Instead of using Whitelist, why don't you suppress IPs instead?

@ronpfs said in pfBlockerNG-devel feedback:

What would be the advantage of that way vs whitelist? In the IPV4 Suppression box I thought you could only enter ranges not individual IPs. But I guess you can enter them with /32 netmask, right?

@BBcan177 just a quick question: I checked on pfBlockerNG devel on a 2.4.4 snapshot system. Still shows php56-5.6.34 as dependency. As 2.4.4 runs on php7.2 I'm wondering, why pfBNG requires usage of the old PHP version (in package manager listing)?
